Summary

The influence of postmenopausal hormone treatment on dementia is not clear. Dysfunctions in the metabolism of amyloid in the disease of Alzheimer result in an elevated presence of degradation products in cerebrospinal fluid.

The degradation products in blood will be analysed during the trial, to get better insight in menopause and the start of hormonal therapy.

Postmenopausal women with and without history of breast cancer will be recruited for the trial.
